Best way to game with others from Team MP:

#1. Add people. Don't just post "Hey my GT is *******, add me!". We have active players lists for individual games and consoles. While adding your name to these lists, send friend requests to those already on it. Most people already on the list, don't go back and look at it often so, while you're already there, make some friends.

#2. Don't be shy. Once you've added people to your friends list, play with them! If you see someone on playing that game your interested in, join them. If they're in a party, join them. It can be a bit intimidating, make you feel like it's the first day of school again, even though you're an adult. But once you jump in and say hello you'll find we don't bite (except for maybe TheFreak...) and we're all just in it for a laugh.

Even if someone is playing a different game, like say Witcher 3 but you know they are on the Rainbow 6 player list, message them and ask if they want to get some R6 in. Chances are, they are only playing the other game because no one else was on yet to play R6 (or whatever other game).*

#3. Be active on the boards. It's not required that you be here all the time but the truth is, the more active you are here and in game, the more people you'll find to play with. And who doesn't want a place to talk about gaming that doesn't involve angry internet fanboy BS??

Team MP is what YOU make of it. The community only thrives because of it's members.

Welcome to Team MP.

*Only exception to this would possibly be if they are watching TV/Netflix/Xbox Video or some other non-gaming app. But you never know, just don't get your feelings hurt if you don't get a response in this situation.

One other thing I'd add to this for both FNG's AND veterans -

If you do get an invite from someone and can't join them, take the time to shoot a quick note back saying "sorry - already squadded up" or "sorry - dinner soon - next time" or something along those lines. I am sure that there are some people who join MP, add friends, and then shoot out an invite but feel ignored.
